Eating well on GLP-1 medicines
GLP-1 medicines often cut appetite sharply, and a lot of people end up eating too little protein as a result. This topic is about food: small meals that still carry protein, what to eat on days you barely feel hungry, and how to notice when you're under-eating.
It isn't medical advice. Dosing and side effects are a conversation with your prescriber. Calsa has no separate setting for these medicines. It logs what you eat and shows protein next to calories, which is usually the number people on these medicines want to keep an eye on.
